Well done to our Year 7 & 8’s who took part in the Burnley Schools’ Indoor Athletics. We are very proud of your fantastic efforts and showed brilliant ethos.

Our mixed Y9 and Y10 team took part in their second rugby tournament of the year and scored victories over Ribblesdale High and Blessed Trinity. Well done!

EPT Great Debate 2022

Some of our students partook in competition with the other schools in EPT and our students worked extremely hard to help Burnley High School be crowned the inaugural champions. One of our students was also voted the ‘Best of Burnley’ – well done Imogen!

I love BHS because it really does feel like a family. All staff and students know each other, are extremely supportive of one another and show amazing levels of respect throughout the school. There really isn’t another school like it!”
